Postage costs...

[tymbian]

Who knows how much it is approximately to send a 24" wheelset with tyres please and what's the best way...Post office?

thanks

For anything bulky I tend to use interlink direct next day delivery and they text the recipient an hour delivery slot which is a nice touch.

They are reasonable and you can get a fiver off with your first shipment...I pay about £11 for a frame to be shipped.

Hope that helps Jason

I've used the post office to ship large items before including bikes, mountain buggey and and a dyson 'hoover'.

Always thought they were reasonable priced and easy to us. You do need to package it up / box it up and have a local post office to go to as they don't collect.

I have heard that parcel2go is also good but never actually used them.

I use either Collect +, which don't collect but seem cheap, or Transglobal Express which states how much many different companies cost, such as DHL.

I use parcel2go when shipping stuff to the states and they give a list of couriers and by far the cheapest and the service I have received thus far from them has been really good

I've sent bikes before using www.senditnow.com They use parcel force who collect it from you and its pretty cheap. Have sent 4 or 5 mountain bikes over the last couple of years and its never cost me more than £15.
